Case Description:
t age 58, after years of persecution.NNMs. Miao Peihua graduated from Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 1986. She previously suffered for years from uterine fibrosis, lumbar disc herniation, and frozen shoulder. A month after she learned Falun Gong in 1996, all of her illnesses vanished, and she could not be happier.NNMs. Miao went to Beijing to appeal for the right to practice Falun Gong in early 2000 and was arrested. She refused to reveal her name and was given 1.5 years at the Tangshan Woman Forced Labor Camp in Hebei Province. The guards tied her to a death bed torture device and injected her with unknown drugs. After she was transferred to the Baoding City Women’s Forced Labor Camp, also in Hebei, the guards instigated other inmates to beat her, pry her mouth open, and force-feed her.NNMs. Miao was arrested again in March 2007 for distributing informational materials about Falun Gong. She was given the second labor camp term of one year.NNOnly one year after being released, she was arrested again on March 31, 2009 and given a third labor camp term of 21 months at the Shandong Province No. 1 Women’s Forced Labor Camp. The guards put her in an isolated room and relentlessly beat her. They smashed her against the walls, kicked her chest, and caused her to vomit blood. They also wrapped her with three bed sheets and didn’t unwrap her until a day later. She developed a heart condition after the torture.NNWhen her term ended in January 2011, instead of releasing her, the 610 Office agents took her to a brainwashing center for three months. During that time she was force-fed with over ten different psychiatric pills three times a day, and shocked with electric batons twice a day. Gradually she had a hard time uttering words and was constantly confused and drowsy. She trembled all over, and her face became distorted. The medical staff laughed at her and offered no help.NNHer last arrest was on June 9, 2015 for talking to people about Falun Gong. After she was released from Shandong Province Women’s Prison in 2019 after four years of incarceration, the local police and officials continued to harass her at home. The mental pressure eventually claimed her life.
